SPECTROCUBE ED-XRF SPECTROMETER FOR FUEL & LUBE OIL ANALYSIS
Easy, accurate, reliableanalysis at twice the speed
Introducing
Advanced elemental analysis that’s optimized for fuel and lube oil testing
SPECTROCUBERefineries, lubrication oil blending plants, independent testing laboratories, and regulatory agencies worldwide demand fast, easy, accurate, affordable analysis for petroleum refining and petrochemical products. The new SPECTROCUBE benchtop XRF analyzer fulfills all these requirements, and more.
For example, users must swiftly verify that gas, diesel, or other fuels meet specified limits for sulfur (S) content. SPECTROCUBE minimizes delays — ensuring the fastest possible turnaround times from sample taking to analysis results. It can analyze a sample in half the time of other spectrometers, with comparable precision! Or with longer measurement intervals, it offers the best detection limits in its class.
In lube oil testing, SPECTROCUBE provides exceptional ease of use — even for inexperienced users — using a single simple method for the analysis of various oil types. And it easily analyzes trace elements in used oils.
It also furnishes advanced performance for a host of other petrochemical applications. For instance, it efficiently tests crude oils for concentrations of sulfur (S), nickel (Ni), vanadium (V), and iron (Fe).
SPECTROCUBE ED-XRF ANALYZER FOR REFINING AND PETROCHEMICALSThe compact new SPECTROCUBE spectrometer incorporates the latest developments in XRF detec-tor technology, including exceptionally high resolution and count rate. These innovations help make it the ideal benchtop solution for petrochemical applications.
UNPARALLELED EASE OF USE
Intuitive, user-tested XRF Analyzer Pro software
presents relevant information on a single screen.
And simplicity is built in. Example: for lube oil
analysis, regardless of oil type, only a single testing
method is required. So SPECTROCUBE enables a
fast, smooth workflow even for minimally trained
operators. Analyze each sample in three easy
steps: 1) Center the prepared sample cup over the
measurement window on the cabinet floor (or on
the optional sample changer). 2) Close the lid. 3)
Click the PC screen or hit the unit’s “start” button.
EXCEPTIONAL SPEED & PERFORMANCE
SPECTROCUBE provides excellent precision for
a wide range of concentration levels. Users can
choose to simply match other spectrometers’
best detection limits — but get the shortest
possible measurement times: 2x faster than
other analyzers in its class! Or users can elect
to merely equal other instruments’ speed —
and achieve detection limits they can’t reach.
The analyzer is ideal for high-throughput opera-
tions. In most cases, no user calibrations or
decisions are required.
COMPREHENSIVECOMPLIANCE
SPECTROCUBE is designed to meet all
relevant refining and petrochemical
analysis standards. Its sulfur content
testing of fuel oils complies with test
methods including ISO 13032, ASTM
D7220, ASTM D4294, ISO 20847, and
ISO 8754. And it enables precise
analysis of lube oil per ASTM D7751.
THE NEWEST SPECTROMETER FROM SPECTRO —
A GLOBAL LEADER IN ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTATION.
SPECTROCUBE employs improved technologies for energy dispersive X-ray
fluorescence (ED-XRF) elemental measurement. It adapts the performance
and reliability that make SPECTRO instruments the benchmarks for XRF and
optical emission spectrometry (OES) analysis.
The SPECTROCUBE analyzer meets or beats the lowest detection limits with the best precision in its class. Given the simplicity of its analytical technique, operators at all levels can have the highest confidence in its results.
Users also get the advantage of one of the industry’s broadest elemental selections. The analyzer is optimized for testing of element concentrations in the range from sodium (Na) to uranium (U). Its lube oil method, for instance, covers 24 elements. Choose SPECTROCUBE for all your petrochemical analysis needs!
With the latest high-resolution silicon drift detector (SDD) and an ultra-high count rate, SPECTROCUBE handles most trace elements with ease. (Some specialized trace elements may require analysis by the top-of-the-line SPECTRO XEPOS ED-XRF spectrometer.)
ENSURED AFFORDABILITY
SPECTROCUBE provides dependable,
high-throughput, cost-effective analysis.
Its competitive pricing and optimized
cost/performance ratio make it affordable
for refineries, testing laboratories, and
government authorities at all levels. Fi-
nally, its high-reliability components and
design keep maintenance expenses low.
COMPACT,RELIABLE DESIGN
The analyzer’s rightsized, ruggedly built cabinet fits tight benchtop
spaces. Its bottom-up design locates detection, excitation, and
processing components below the chamber floor. Thus users can
run high numbers of samples simply, quickly, and conveniently.
Also, those parts are guarded by a sample window, with the
detector further shielded by a shutter open only during measure-
ment. Most components have been time-tested by use in the
high-end SPECTRO XEPOS analyzer. Results: high-reliability
SPECTROCUBE components are securely protected against
contamination, damage — and unneeded downtime. So the
analyzer can provide trouble-free performance over a long
service life.
